I can’t claim that I cook Indian food authentically, but what I can do is cook Indian-ish food that tastes pretty good. Aloo Gobi is one of my favorites, and this is my at-home version. The basic components are all here: potato (aloo) & cauliflower (gobi). The rest is a bit of a riff… it’s a little lighter and a lot greener. Also, these ingredients should be easy to find.
I think this aloo gobi recipe makes the perfect “it’s still winter but almost spring” meal. It’s warm and hearty, but it has bright pops of peas and a few handfuls of greens. A bit of coconut milk and a squeeze of lime make it rich & tangy. Feel free to make this as spicy or as mild as you like… An extra pinch of cayenne for me, please. If you love Indian-inspired dishes, try this vegetable curry or this chana masala next!
